Kolkata There was panic among passengers of the Howrah-bound Rajdhani Express when smoke was seen emanating from one of its wheels on Saturday, said sources with the Eastern Railways. As the train was entering Durgapur station around 10.32 am, a cabin man noticed smoke emanating from a wheel. The train was halted at Durgapur and checked. On examination, it was found that a plastic bag which had got entangled with a wheel was causing the smoke as it brushed against the track.
